Leviticus 7:5 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 7:5

And the priest shall burn them upon the altar
Fat taken off of the several parts before mentioned, and the kidneys: which were to be

[for] an offering made by fire unto the Lord;
and was acceptable to him, being typical of the offering of Christ, which is a sweet smelling savour, bearing the fire of divine wrath in the room and stead of his people:

it [is] the trespass [offering];
an offering for a trespass committed, to make atonement for it; and this part of it, the burning of the fat, was properly the offering to the Lord, all the rest were the priest's, as follows.

Leviticus 7:5 In-Context

3 And he shall offer of it all its fat; the rump, and the fat that covereth the inwards,

4 And the two kidneys, and the fat that [is] on them, which [is] by the flanks, and the caul [that is] above the liver, with the kidneys, that shall he take away:

5 And the priest shall burn them upon the altar [for] an offering made by fire to the LORD: it [is] a trespass-offering.

6 Every male among the priests shall eat of it: it shall be eaten in the holy place: it [is] most holy.

7 As the sin-offering [is], so [is] the trespass-offering: [there is] one law for them: the priest that maketh atonement with it shall have [it].
